Julian,
  Yes, yes, please send the bounce feature to /dev/null
in the next release.  The outbreak of MyDoom-A reinforces
the notion that anti-virus codes that bounce are idiotic.
I've been fielding calls and emails all morning on this.

BTW, clamav started crushing MyDoom at 14:36 local time.
Sophos didn't put out an IDE until 2.5 hours later (7 PM).
Thank god for MailScanner's robust design that allows for
multiple scanners.  I really need to look at that Amazon
wish list...
